INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES
Crisis Response, Advisory, Investigation & Litigation for Individuals and Families
Some of the hardest calls we get start with "I don't know if I need a lawyer." Something happened to you, your child or your career: an assault, a problem at work, a threat to your safety or reputation. You need someone who knows the law and will tell you honestly what each path entails.
We've been prosecutors, trial lawyers and investigators, and we've represented survivors, people accused, students and executives. Sometimes the right answer is a criminal report, a lawsuit or an order of protection. Sometimes it's a negotiation, a discreet investigation, a safety plan, or deciding not to engage the system at all. We help you choose, then we see it through
Who We Work With
Adults facing sexual misconduct, a threat to their safety or privacy, or the criminal system, whether as a survivor, a witness or the person accused.
Parents and families when something happens to a child at school, online or at home.
Students in Title IX and campus proceedings, as complainants or respondents.
Executives and professionals facing workplace misconduct, a separation, negotiation, or a matter that could define a career.
Public figures and family offices who need discreet counsel, in a crisis or as an ongoing relationship.
